    lsass.exe shuts down computer automatically

    I was under the impression that sasser only auto shutdown the machine when you were connected to the net - I have never seen or heard of it shutting down the machine before it even boots into windows.... I agree the fault lies with Microsoft - they enjoy testing unfinished software on the...

    Trojan removal

    A few I'd say, Sysclean from www.antivirus.com - you will need to get the latest pattern files also. Ewido - this is an evalution version but should get rid and could be worth a buy. Trojan Hunter - as above TDS 3 - wierd but good Spybot, adaware, hijackthis etc all have thier place too...

    Spybot keeps disappearing

    Have you run antivirus software on your machine first? How does it perform? Some Worms attack anti-malware software like this in order to avoid detection.... Kes :)

    Looking for enterprise antivirus advice

    I take it back about Bit Defender, though it does pick up a lot of stuff, it is very buggy and was stopping email coming in and generally making machines flakey. Kes :)

    Cannot remove a pop up advertising

    Delete these: O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [popuppers64] C:\WINDOWS\a64sddd.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Dvx] C:\WINDOWS\system32\wsxsvc\wsxsvc. O15 - Trusted Zone: *.media-motor.net O15 - Trusted Zone: *.popuppers.com And I would be very suspicious of these also, unless you have any idea what they relate...

    Regedit problems

    OK - I am working on a machine that was extensively infected with trojans, spyware and adware - I have removed the majority of these but cannot get into the registry to do a final clean up as I get an error messages saying Regedit cannot be found or doesn't exist etc. The machine is running...

    Painfully slow DB on one NW machine

    Ok - have checked the speed on the network and it is running at 100 FD. Memory, disk space and temp file space all seem fine. Next I am going to try transferring a large file over the network to check performance to and from that machine and I will shorten the length of the cable too, which has...

    Another kind of Low-Level Format?

    Maxtor do a generic low-level formatter called 'max llf' - we use it all the time on all kinds of different drives - I agree that the company sound as they are just fobbing you off with BS and sound like they don't essentially wish to support thier product. Is it a large company? Kes :)

    Backdoor.Beasty.Family nightmare!

    Hi mrbud Sounds like some form of trojan... As a general rule of thumb, don't pay for anything to remove adware/spyware for you as some of them are malware in themselves - it's difficult to sort the good from the bad - As to your Hijack this log, I will post what I think you kshould def delete...

    NAV won't run in Safe Mode

    Norton has limited capabilities in safe mode as do many anti virus programs .... Try Sysclean from Trend www.antivirus.com along with the latest pattern file and vCleaner from Grisoft www.grisoft.com as well as spybot 1.3 and adaware se, both with the latest updates Kes :)

    ensure Windows messenging (NOT MSN MESSENGER) service is stopped... Right click My Computer > scroll to Manage > click on Services and Applications > Services > Locate Messenger > Doulbe click on this and use the spin box to set it to disable - this service is unecessary and sometimes allows pop...
